This session could explore how AI is both a tool for defense and a potential weapon for attackers, offering insights into the latest research and best practices.
Abstract:
The Intersection of AI and Cybersecurity: Threats and Opportunities
The digital age is a double-edged sword, presenting immense opportunities while exposing us to an ever-evolving landscape of cyber threats. This presentation will explore the multifaceted role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in this landscape. AI is not merely a tool for defense; it's a potential weapon for malicious actors. We'll delve into:
• The Cyber Risk Intelligence Manifesto: How AI is fundamentally reshaping how we gather, analyze, and act on threat intelligence.
• AI as a Force Multiplier: Examining how AI enhances both defensive and offensive cyber capabilities, from automated threat detection to the creation of sophisticated malware.
• Real-World Implications: Case studies illustrating AI's impact on critical infrastructure, data breaches, and the broader cyber risk landscape.
• Building a Proactive Defense: Strategies and best practices for organizations to leverage AI for risk mitigation, incident response, and resilient digital operations.
• Ethical Considerations: Navigating the ethical dilemmas arising from the use of AI in cyber warfare and defense.
